Benefits of technology

[0006]Utilizing the portable electronic device of the embodiment of the invention, the portable electronic device can stably stand on the supporting surface (for example, table surface) allowing users to watch video images therefrom. Additionally, since the image capturing unit is disposed in the supporting element, the inner space of the portable electronic device is saved, and the portable electronic device can be placed in higher or lower positions to capture images with different capturing angles.

Problems solved by technology

However, conventional portable electronic devices are flat devices with no standing function.

Abstract

A portable electronic device is provided. The portable electronic device includes a body, an operation interface, a supporting element and an image capturing unit. A receiving recess is formed on the body. The operation interface is disposed on the body. The supporting element is rotated between a first orientation and a second orientation relative to the body, wherein when the supporting element is in the first orientation, the supporting element is in the receiving recess, and when the supporting element is in a second orientation, an angle is formed between the supporting element and the body, wherein the angle is greater than 0 degree. The image capturing unit is disposed in the supporting element.
